Big expanse there, but things can definitely be done this way. I'm not 86%
sure, but I suspect this [1] coolness has been done with scraping + Bayesian
analysis, i.e. probabilistic stats. (The categories are machine-generated,
btw)
If anyone does know exactly how this was done please whisper - off list if
need be ;-)
